Damn G... that kicks ass. Great style on the Marq... love the eyes! The Marqs have become one of my favs to carve too no matter what the size.
You deserve one for yourself! Good choice!
Best of luck in your upcoming show!

Wow, thanks alot Hewey. I do appreciate the compliments. Surfing is great. If you lived here in (Florida) and surfed, you would be dreaming of Australia surf. Take advantage of what you have there.....Never been, but I will one day.
Longboard rules........

Florida Surf is just perfect imo. I have surfed near Hewey (Guam) and had the willies every time I got the nads to go in the water. Tigers and Whites dominate those waters. I adore our little Bulls and blacktips just fine. Nice soft sand to crank your beak into when you wipeout as well.
Funshapes rule!

McTiki, now that you mention Whites and Tigers, I think I'll just stick to going to Costa Rica...........You just have to watch out for Crock's there;)

Yeah, they are fat and huge. They look like logs floating towards you (I hear alot from the gang that goes to Hermosa & Jaco) Never been there yet. Gettin too old for harsh carvin, but, love to play in our waves where it's nice and safe. We should hook up this summer.

Surfed all up and down the coast there, but my favorite spot is Mal Pais/Santa Teresa on the Nicoya Peninsula...Good size, but mellow. I always stay at the hoteltropicolatino.com lodge. Right on the beach baby. Headed back probably in October...I'll keep you informed for a hook up.

Ahhh... you should visit the paradise of the Great Lakes... as we have no human preditors to fear except the cold water temps...
Didn't mean to sabotage your tiki thread G but if you Floridians happen to find yourselves traveling near the Lakes I highly suggest bringing a board... you would have fun!

Sweeeeet! But, BRRRRRRRR, I have turned into a fair weather surfer myself. The closest we get to that temp is when there's hail....Like today! Worked on my latest log for about 2 hrs and had to bag it. Literally!
